Vancouver's Next Great Chef

vancouver-next-top-chef.jpg
Tonight is episode 7 of The Next Great Chef and two Vancouver chefs are faced off against one another. In one corner Laura Sharpe, 22, from Diva at the Met. In the other, Ryan Stone, 23 from The Marriott Pinnacle. Wish I could say that we'd been following this show from day one, but we didn't.

The premise isn't so bad actually, and they've tried to kick it up a notch on the production values, with letterboxing and fairly food network style. The problem is that it lacks any star power and the judges? Come on, the reason American Idol is so successful is because of Simon. If he didn't make fun of the contestents or openly mock them for being fatties or just plain morons, who would watch. Same applies here. There is no drama. I frankly couldn't care less who won. And mentors? Where is the sport in that? And honestly where the hell is the Chairman or the Kitchen Stadium.

How lame. The winner was Laura Sharpe if you even care.
